VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
THANK YOU Heather, Diana, Marie, Michelle and Adrienne for volunteering on Tuesday!!! Moving to our new location went well but I discovered that I desperately need volunteers. Thank you to those that have already signed up!! I can’t believe the month of June is almost filled up!The July calendar is posted and we need volunteers!
If you are interested in volunteering, I have created a volunteer sign up on Signup Genius. I am asking for volunteers to sign up for 1 hour shifts from 2p to 6:45pm. No packing is involved just need someone to be there to assist other members. You are welcome to bring your kids as long as they are supervised. Here is the link to the sign up http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0A44AEA623A7FA7-volunteer
The link is also posted on the About page on our website.
Thank you in advance for your support!
Reminder: Pick Up Entrance & Time Change
We are still working out all the kinks and logistics of being in a new space. To make things go a little smoother, we are asking that you come to the back entrances instead of the front door.
We will have a SIDE ENTRANCE open and the DOCK will always be open. The only time the side entrance will be closed is if it is raining.
Starting this Tuesday please only USE SIDE ENTRANCE AND DOCK to pick up your items.
Also, I pick up my daughter from practice right at 7pm so we need to have the warehouse locked up by 6:45pm. Until further notice PICK UP WILL NOW END AT 6:45PM.
Butter is in!
If you pre-ordered grass fed butter it will be available for pick up this Tuesday! The butter will be in coolers since we do not have enough fridge space to hold 144 lbs of butter and the milk… Look for your name on the coolers on Tuesday.
Group Buys are exempt from our “No show, will Donate” policy so your butter will NOT be donated if you can’t pick up. If you already know you won’t be able to pick your butter on Tuesday, please drop me a note and I’ll keep it for you until you can pick up.
If you missed out on the grass fed group buy order, we do an order every 3 months.
